2025 Wedding Season Kick-Off at Castello di Gabbiano, Tuscany

Ceremony view at Castello del Gabbiano, Tuscany

A warm welcome to the 2025 wedding season dear friends of Love Folio! It’s always exciting to start a long series of destination wedding photography in Italy in the Spring months. Spring is such an underrated season, but in fact, it might just be the one that surprises us the most. Well, the first wedding of 2025 was no exception, because we found ourselves in this little Tuscan gem of wedding venue: Castello di Gabbiano, brought here by the lovely colleagues of Weddings International planning agency. This stunning view on the Chianti hills is what greeted us upon arrival and also what framed the ceremony oh so perfectly. Isn’t this one of the best views on the Tuscan countryside?

This wedding was a small, intimate affair for family and friends of a couple who asked us to remain anonymous and keep their photographs for themselves and their loved ones. We were of course happy to comply. In the meantime we can show you this lovely colour palette centred around pale lilacs, dusty blues and delicate bunches of anemone perfectly arranged by Tuscan wedding florist Infinito Amore.

We particularly loved the rustic yet regal charm of Castello di Gabbiano, a wonderful castle dating back to 1124. Its own winery makes it a perfect choice for foodies and wine lovers who are looking to experience Tuscany in its most authentic form. The light falls in an especially perfect way on the Castle, allowing us to explore the architecture of the building immersed in the plush landscape around the venue.
